    I have the motopump. Worth its weight in gold when I needed it. Probably twice that if you need it and don't have one.
    Plugs right into the BMW socket or other options like alligator clips.

    Those motopumps things are the nuts, I have one just like it :) :) :)
    Always good training / practice to run a screw or nail into a tire before changing it and then going through the process of repairing with what you have on the bike and then riding around a bit just to show yourself you can do it if required. I did a post on R1150R.net but can't access it from here, learned that BMW plugs suck, 15 year old Wally World gummy strings work good enough, that CO2 inflators aren't for me and that its a good idea to have a stash of quarters for the gas station compressor. And don't pull the offending piece out until you're ready to shove something else in.

    Sorry to have missed a good lunch / meet-n-greet, but look forward to the next one.

    Best regards,

    DLS
